ORCA Project - P.I.T.S. - Safdie & Associates

I thought this was “pie in the sky” but the city better start moving its own rail deck plans ‘cause this one may be real: LPAT proceedings are now reviewing a 16,000 page submission.

Includes 8 Safdie-designed mixed-use towers with a park over the rail corridor between Bathurst Street and Spadina Avenue in Downtown Toronto.

Check out this rather astonishing video for the project (click on the YouTube link):

You know, I'd have to say that I do not hate it, even though I'm much more about incremental development than mega-structures. In this case it makes some sense. I would like to see a little more variation in height and colour of the individual towers, though. I'm guessing this is more of a conceptual starting point, and the design will be refined as it goes along, if it actually has legs.

Am I right in understanding that it is in CN's court to determine who they sell the air rights to (if at all)?
